Prog/Metal Vocal Showdown #15: Douglas vs den Adel
« on: May 24, 2014, 05:46:53 AM »
Back to the babes.  This is a tough one for me, as I just haven't gotten too deep into Anathema, and Douglas isn't really a front person.  Sharon on the other hand is a fantastic front-woman, but I just find her vocals lack a certain oomph.  Don't get me wrong, she sounds great, has got fabulous range, and never misses a note.  There's just a certain je ne sais quois that leaves me wanting more when I listen to Within Temptation.

Think I'm going with Douglas.

I fear for the day when something happens on the right that is SO nuts that even Stadler says "That's crazy".

Lee Douglas, but it's more about how she is able to work with Vincent than how she sounds alone that gets me really excited.

Sharon by a million miles. She just ... does things to me... (in my imagination, obviously).

Both are good, but I prefer Sharon.

Know the names, but not really familiar with either, but Sharon is hotter and gets my vote.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.
